Reddit mentions: The best surveillance housing & mounting brackets

I answered above in this thread with some thoughts on smart switches, the tl;dr is the Lutron Caseta is by far the most versatile option for converting a full house. Leviton has some good options if you want hardware switches in 3-way environments instead of utilizing the remotes from the Lutron system, but frankly the hardware switches from Leviton cost about the same as the remotes from Lutron and the Lutron is a lot easier to install and operate...

This goes doubly for ceiling fans, I adore their ceiling fan controllers. I have 4 of them, and in one room where I didn't have the wiring necessary to wire in a lutron fan controller I actually installed an insteon fan controller inside the fan housing and connected that to homekit via their insteon pro hub. Its a huge hassle, and the lutron wall fan controllers are a million times better but they do require neutral wiring in the wall.

Finally, for garage doors my reco is to go with the insignia universal garage door adapter and pair it with this magnetic sensor instead of the one included because its a hell of a lot better and will give you a more reliable sensor reading: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GUSNQW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I just used security camera mounts that came with some IP cameras and hard mounted to ceiling, but they can be found for pretty cheap online, and are even cheaper shipped from China on Ebay. For two sensors in a round room you will have best luck with them facing each other from opposite sides, higher (6-8 feet), and angled down. If you have three then you would spread them each by 120 degrees flux capacitor style.

A circular room of the right size would be awesome. I recently got a circular rug that is ~7 feet in diameter that I put in the middle of my 14x12ft play space. The rug is pretty thick (~0.5"+) so now I can always recenter my self just by feeling the orientation of the rug edge and taking a couple steps back inward. I've been thinking about how I want to modify my boundaries in Rift and WMR to take advantage of the new setup.

Although Robo Recall was a bit too arcadey for my tastes, it's still very fun and free, but Lone Echo... omfg, Lone Echo is amazing. Absolute must-play.

I also recommend Wilson's Heart, Obduction, and Robinson (which just got Touch support!) if you are into VR adventure games.

If you are into racing, and have all the right gear (seat + wheel + pedals), check out Dirt Rally and Project CARS 2, as well. They are incredible. I've noticed that people don't tend to have nausea problems with racing games when they are using a seat and wheel.

If you are ready to step things up, Elite: Dangerous is the one VR experience that keeps me coming back more than any other (Dirt Rally comes in second). You can easily spend a lot of money on it, though. Add a HOTAS setup, Voice Commander, and a VC voice pack, and you've added $300 to your purchase price... but once you do, it's no longer a game... you are genuinely living in space. I don't even really think of it as a game anymore. It's a second life. It's real.

Oh and as others have mentioned... don't leave your Rift near a window. Those damn fresnel lenses can damage your screen like a magnifying glass focusing on an ant... and Oculus will NOT repair it, not even for a fee.

Also, I strongly recommend mounting your cameras to a wall or ceiling. These are the mounts I use and recommend: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D49TU4/

I've found just about any USB3 extender cable works, but apparently, some people's motherboards don't output enough power for longer cables. If you run into that problem, use a USB3 or USB-C (if your mobo has one) based, independently powered hub. I've found you can get away with 2 cameras running over a single powered hub connected to a USB3 port, or 4 cameras connected to a hub connected to a USB-C port.

Here's the USB3 hub I recommend to everyone with power issues: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VDVCQ84/

Edit: Oh, and if you already have Alien: Isolation, there's now a mod that restores the game's original VR support for CV. Keep in mind, it still has plenty of rough edges and is gamepad only, but playing through that in VR is one my most cherished gaming memories.

I use these camera wall mounts from Amazon in my room, and they look a lot nicer than the generic L brackets I bought the first time. They come in sets, with cheap but sufficient wall anchors, and are inexpensive. I have mine coming from the ceiling, but they also work well on the walls.

If those are no good, just search your preferred store or site with the same keywords as I did above, in blue. You'll get tons of results :)

Something worth mentioning is that the cameras don't have the usual 90° fov, it's more like 120°. There's a free utility Sensor Bounds that will show you the coverage your cameras are getting from inside VR, I have found it helpful.

Opposite corners, up as high as you can, so they're looking down at you seems to work best if you want 360 coverage with 2 sensors. Unfortunately, that'll probably require you to get extension cables, but they aren't that expensive. The front facing setup that Oculus recommends is really fast and really easy, but losing the ability to turn around in VR really hurts the experience, imo.

If you are able to buy a couple extension cables, I'd really consider trying to get them all the way up in a top corner of the room. You may want to consider a third sensor if you really want to go full room scale, too. I have three sensors mounted up high in 3 out of the 4 corners of my room (2 in front, one in back) and tracking is essentially flawless. It's a little bit of extra work to actually mount something to the wall, but it's worth it if you're setting it up for the long run. I used these mounts.

Having extension cables also gives you extra room to work with so that you can properly route the cables in a neat way instead of having them just hanging loose on the wall. I bought some cable concealers and they pretty much blend into the wall, so you really just see the sensor itself. Looks a lot nicer.

My comment was really targeted toward OpenHAB. If you're running Wink, I think you'd be better off getting one of these GoControl/Linear GD00Z-4 Z-Wave Garage Door Opener. Amazon reviews are pretty solid and Home Depot was selling them for use with Wink for a while. I believe it comes with a tilt sensor, which is probably easier to use than boogering a regular door sensor on like I did. Probably a solid bet. I would have bought one of these if OpenHAB supported the z-wave barrier class.

As far as the MIMOLite... I can't tell you for sure as I run OpenHAB, but it looks like it should work according to these links: post in reddit /r/homeautomation and Amazon review

I'm using a Go Control / Nortek Controls / Linear WADWAZ-1 to sense my garage door. I snagged one of the WNK01-21KIT kits from Home Depot on sale.

I've also got a Honeywell Ademco 958 overhead door contact on my other door that should work as the door contact listed in fortrezz's diagram linked in my previous comment, if you wanted to sort of wire it.

For Wink, by the time you buy both the mimolite and the door contact (wired or z-wave) you might as well just buy the go controls device and get the benefit of secured z-wave barrier class.

Mounts from Amazon at a cost of £11.20 for 4. And using a 10 MTR active usb 2 extension which so far works great.

I don't have the video cam, so I can't offer up specific recs, but there are a number of mini/pocket sized tripods with small ball swivel heads that might help if you're wanting to set it on a shelf or table. Manfrotto offers a pretty solid one, or some of the ones sold as cell phone tripods might work if they aren't so lightweight that they fall over easily.

Alternatively, something like this could also work, though depending on camera weight or the center of gravity, you'd probably need to screw it down to the shelf or to a board painted to match: https://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Adjustable-Mounting-Installation-Surveillance/dp/B001D49TU4/

About a year ago I posted on Raspberry Pi projects how to on one I made. I used a Raspberry Pi. Here it is:

I solved your problem in my own application 3 different ways (I love redundancy, I love redundancy) that are completely different than the way you are looking to solve it. So I'm not going to answer your question, I'm going to answer mine and hope it applies to you.

My solution is on a Pi0W with a relay that shorts the switch on a hacked garage remote to open the door. This is also a single button trigger and I believe similar to your application. I heavily modified this solution to create a webpage that allow me to press a button on the screen to trigger the button. http://www.instructables.com/id/Raspberry-Pi-Garage-Door-Opener/

Solution #1 I have a webcam set up in my garage pointing at the garage door. This in itself is a full solution because I can always just look at the feed to monitor the door. But that's not enough for me. The model camera I use: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004P8K24W/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It has a url which publishes a snapshot of what the camera sees. This url can be embedded in the "button web page" to publish an image of the garage on the same page as the button <img src="url" />. 1-stop convenience. To turn the snapshot into meta-video I refresh the page every 3 seconds <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3">. Essentially allowing me to press the button and watch the progress of the door. All in one place.

Solution #2: I picked up one of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006M1I1W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and again heavily modified this guide: http://www.ryansouthgate.com/2015/08/10/raspberry-pi-door-sensor/ To determine whether the door is open or closed. I run the script at boot in a terminal window and a bonus effect is I can effectively log the door status.

I incorporated this into my webpage by using this: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=58267

I added this code to the "open" condition to email me if the door is open: http://naelshiab.com/tutorial-send-email-python/

My modifications basically pulled all this information together into my "button web site" Action, view, and response on the door. Basically they were cut and paste and mostly done in HTML.

Finally not sure how new you are to this but there are other factors to get this all to work: OpenVPN - to hide everything behind my firewall and expose none of it to the internet. I vpn in and it's all as if I'm on my home network. no-ip - dynamic dns so I can resolve my vpn to a name rather than an IP which periodically changes.

After I mounted the camera at about 6 feet on the wall... everything is better. It might be just that it was too close to the desk surface, maybe seeing my rift ir's in reflection off the top of the table, i would see a small drift sometimes. After mounting on wall, tracking is rock solid. With such rock-steady tracking, I do not bee-bop all over the place. Loving the Rift even more. I got the mount from amazon, fits perfectly.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009AOWF50/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

> due to cable management and a less than enthused girlfriend.

Heh, been there.

The rod istelf isn't mountable, it doesn't have screw holes. You could make them yourself I guess, but honestly, you're better off buying some CCTV mounts like this to mount the sensors:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Shappy-Security-Outdoor-Adjustable-Compatible/dp/B01N4IOQP6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1501668002&sr=8-1&keywords=cctv+mounts

Bright light from the window might interfere with the sensors, but if the windows are covered it will make no difference if the sensor is facing them.

Something like this then stick on walls/ceiling with Command Strips seems to be the best way to go. Maybe some of the Command cable routing hooks as well to keep those all clean and neat looking

> Also note that their maximum recommended area is 8'x8'. And in the link from support the maximum distance between sensors is 14'.

Yeah, I saw that, but I imagine that they are underestimating the range to be on the safe side. I guess I might just have to experiment with the install. It's going to be a bit of a pita to have to experiment, but oh well. I ordered three of these mounts:
https://www.amazon.com/OdiySurveil-Security-Housing-Bracket-Camera/dp/B00R96X9DS/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1500067030&sr=8-4&keywords=cctv+mount

So, I'll be able to use these mounts to angle them down towards the play space better. (I currently have them on maximum tilt, but I still don't think they are angled down far enough) besides currently being too far away as well.

Just posted on another post about this! I️ was looking at the ones recommended by sonos and they are all super expensive, I️ used the mounting brackets for the Arlo cameras and they work GREAT. Plus it’s a fraction of the price. I’ll put the link below. My AV stuff is behind where it’s mounted so I️ just cut a hole on both sides and just used like a wall plate that allows wires to pass through the wall and it gives it a finished look.


Security Wall Mount- Adjustable Indoor/Outdoor Mount Comptaible With Arlo, Arlo Pro, Arlo Pro 2 and Other Compatible Models — by Dropcessories (2 Pack, White) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01I985WRK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_mc0bAbKZHM7AK

I've ordered some of these Command Picture Hanging strips and a couple security camera mounts that I'm going to try to use with the Rift's sensor(s).

The picture hanging strips should allow for moving the second sensor from one corner to another if necessary. E.g. game "A" works best with two front mounted sensors but game "B" works best with opposite corner mounted sensors... In theory I should be able to detach a camera and reattach it in the desired location without much fuss and without making a lot of holes in the wall.

I think Oculus said these things because they didn't want to scare casuals away. It is much easier to grasp the setup when they tell you to set them on your desk. Also initially Oculus started with one sensor. Then touch came and you had two sensors. Then you had the option of buying 3rd and 4th sensors. My point is with one sensor the closer the better because it can't triangulate your position and tracking accuracy drops drastically with distance. With 2 accuracy is better and distance because the system can much more accurately track at distance. With 3 and 4 sensors tracking can keep track of your distance from each sensor and position within that 3d space amazingly well.

With each step up from one sensor the effective tracking distance is increased and tracking at any given distance is improved in terms of robustness.

Trust us. Put your sensors as high as you can. You can mount them with these upside down in the corners of your room: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D49TU4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Use these extensions cables for the sensors: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0179MXKU8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you need even more length I have had luck with this extension but I only use it on my furthest sensor: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DMFFL2W/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Always keep your cabling as short as possible. The first extension I posted can be used on all sensors without issues. I haven't had any issues with the second 33ft extension but I would not attempt to use that one on all sensors unless I had too.

I have my 3-sensor setup at head level... about 6'. Initially I was going to place them much higher (around 8'); but came to the realization I would be losing a little range in the bargain. It wouldn't be much, but given the size of my playspace, it was borderline achievable, so I played it safe. I rarely encounter tracking issues.

I'm not much a fan of tripods. I find them cumbersome and tacky. I also don't relish the idea of wires hanging out all over the place, or having to reconfigure or reset every time I want to jump in to a session.

I suggest you find a weekend to spend some time measuring the dimensions of your area, invest in some cord concealers at the local hardware place (you can paint them), pick up the recommended USB extension cables (if necessary), and purchase some cheap wall mounts.

The result is functional, an aesthetically pleasing.

Yah I’ve seen ones like that, something like this looks more protective imo (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DW971RT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_u5vJBb3QKSA7N)

I wouldn’t leave it somewhere where rain/snow is going to hit it (I’m in so cal so not much of an issue) but leaving it under an eve would be fine imo. With this one the main issue is the power cable is exposed, putting some silicone around that outlet, connection and even camera hole would make it pretty ideal imo.

If your playspace has a hard floor I highly recommend some of the anti fatigue foam floor pieces. They make long sessions easier and make kneeling or going prone way more comfortable. Plus it is quite forgiving should you drop a controller or headset. It can also serve as a physical boundary to your play area that you can feel.

You should get some mounts to put your sensors up high on a wall and pointed down. I can recommend a cheap ball joint camera mount that comes in a 3 pack on Amazon.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N4IOQP6/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apip_9aJqMPIoJ9uHM
And these to keep it tidy
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071Y1RGPP/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apip_nNyNjkDh1rnju

If your space is more than 5’ x 5’ you might want to get extension cables for your headset. There is a sticky thread on what cable are confirmed to be compatible.

I’d also consider a “leather” face pad that you can wipe clean. I like my VRCover just because it doesn’t absorb sweat.
https://vrcover.com/product/oculus-rift-facial-interface-foam-replacement-basic-set/

You should think about storage too. You want it handy to minimize setup fiction. A shelf or 3d printing hanging fixture on Thingverse perhaps.

I highly recommend having a fan in the room to keep air moving over you face. It helps you get you VR legs by reducing naseau but also prevents your lenses fogging up. Plus the direction of the breeze can keep you oriented in real space without breaking immersion.

i dont think thats very necessary. though, yeah, might as well. i know exactly what he's talking about. any security camera mount will do.

here are the ones i got.

https://www.amazon.com/OdiySurveil-Security-Housing-Bracket-Camera/dp/B00R96X9DS/ref=pd_sim_63_34?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00R96X9DS&pd_rd_r=AKK3TTZB98ME2QCMTB4J&pd_rd_w=o7hH7&pd_rd_wg=jHVox&psc=1&refRID=AKK3TTZB98ME2QCMTB4J

you can get them in the perfect spot and angle, easy.

Wyze cams are very cheap and reliable as well as highly reccomended. There's a r/wyzecam, because of course there is, LOL...

Wyze Cams are incredibly affordable:

Pan & Zoom model $37.98

Wyze Cam V2 $25.98 plus 20% off now

The cameras are made for indoor use only use only, however can be mounted outside with a skin purchased separately. Both models have birdhouse skins (links below) but they're not as invisible as the ideas posted on the Wyze forum and subreddit.

I also came across this great post on the Wyze Cam Forum to add an extra layer of protection againdt the elements using a trimmed balloon. Lots of ideas for hiding in plain sight.

Pan & Zoom - $13.99

Wyze Cam V2 Birdhouse Suction Cup Mount $12.99 / 1 or $18.99 / 2

I hope this helps!

The room is 11'x12'
No bed however there is a couch which takes up some valuable space.
I used wall bushings that I sawed partially in half with a dremel so that I could slip the cable into it without having to cut the USB head off. I also had to soak the bushing is boiling water to soften it up a bit for bending. It makes the hole in the ceiling very clean. The hole itself was drilled just wide enough to get the USB head through. I'll post some pics soon of the wires. :)

Yes, you can set the two sensors up diagonally in each corner of the play area.

Optimally, they would be mounted up high, angled down, to minimize occlusion from your body. This could be on a bookshelf, a tripod, or cheap camera mounts (the sensor stand unscrews so you can screw it into a standard mount). They don't need to be the same height, either.

If you can't do that, then having them at desk height gets you pretty decent 360 tracking too. You might notice some drops where your hands shake a bit.

I have about a 10x10' space, 3 cameras, and wall/ceiling mounted two of them. Tracking is just about perfect.

I have all 4 of my sensors mounted 7 ft up, I have switched back to only using 3 till I get this issue resolved.

I tried using the cable matters 16ft active USB 3.0 cable for one of my fronts sensors but it wouldnt detect as 3.0, so I swapped it for the 10ft passive one and it worked fine.

Here are the mounts and cable I have had success with:

First, describe your planned mounting location as it pertains to weather exposure.

Covered? Not covered? Temps?

There are "weatherproof" enclosures/housings out there but none of them are truly weatherproof since they require holes for cables, don't have sealant rings, etc.

I bought these for my setup and it seems to work fine so far. Full disclosure it has not yet rained and I installed them 2 days ago, and they are under an overhand alongside some floodlights. But the reviews on Amazon indicate they work well.

If your setup involves being quite a ways back from the nearest overhang, you may not even need an enclosure.

If you have the room/ability, I'd mount the sensors on the ceiling or corners of the room. I got two (VideoSecu 2 Pack 2-6 inch Metal Wall Ceiling Mounts Adjustable Pan Tilt Video Camera Mounting Brackets https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001D49TU4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_bYfm6J1rX8VQH) to mount them cheaply and securely, and three (Cable Matters SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Type A Male to Female Active Extension Cable 5 Meters/16.4 Feet https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DMFB5OK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_z9Cm45OtYiwYz). Purchasing a third sensor nets you a USB extension cable, and I also got an HDMI extension cable to give my Rift some extra room. Sorry for all the links! The ceiling setup gives me pretty flawless tracking.

They don't make an outdoor camera, but I have seen people post that they fit in the Nest Cam outdoor mounts. They were a lot more popular before the Nest outdoor cam was released.

Something like this:
Dropcases Nest Cam & Dropcam Pro Case Outdoor Enclosure, 3.9 by 2.1-Inches, Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00Q4OSXA0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_lxfNzbPMGRMHM

First pick up one of these Wyze Cam Pans. They work great and actively turn to watch motion.

Wyze Cam Pan 1080p Pan/Tilt/Zoom Wi-Fi Indoor Smart Home Camera with Night Vision, 2-Way Audio, Person Detection, Works with Alexa & the Google Assistant https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DGR98VQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_aQlnDbVAC42DP

Then you can also get one of these to hide it and mount it outside.

Wyze Cam Pan Protective Case with Wall Mount Bracket, Weather Proof Adjustable for Indoor and Outdoor Anti-Sun Glare and UV Protection Very Easy to Install (Black) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07GCYF2T8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_rRlnDb3D7RDDZ

At least you'll have a notification when motion is detected at your front door.

Next thing, get an alarm system so if they break in it informs the cops who are right down the road.

I can't comment on the effectiveness of my mounting yet, since I've still just got one sensor until tomorrow - but I've mounted mine about 7 feet high on the wall (just above door frame height). When testing potential mounting spots, I found that any higher and tracking would get wobbly or that the Rift sensor setup would complain about being too far from the sensor.

I used these security camera mounts from Amazon (they sell them in both two packs and single packs, so I ended up buying three total). I like these because they can extend out from the wall with the included extensions and I needed that extra length because I have a really deep desk that would occlude tracking if they didn't stick out so far. Note that these mounts are probably too heavy to use with command strips, they really do need to be screwed in (I tested them with command strips just while I was trying them in different positions and three large command strips did hold the mount+sensor during testing, but didn't seem like it would hold reliably forever).

When testing different positions, I used DeskScene to visualize and test the tracking area. Note that it currently only works with one sensor, but the developer has said he's working on adding support for additional sensors.

I think if you have room for them on your desk, your desk doesn't occlude them when you crouch, and you can step far enough back from your desk when playing to be in their sweet spot, there's no special reason to mount them, though.

These worked great for me as far as the mounting goes. The 3M strips did work for ceiling mounting it, even though the bottom isn't flat. Eventually, after a month or so of testing I will probably screw them in.

I'd also invest in some cable hiders because while the mounted sensors look great, the wires look like shit running all around my room lol.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R96X9DS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 These puppies are amazing. All metal, SUPER small, and have complete adjustment for height and rotation adjustment. 6 bucks.

Looks nice, but I wouldn't store the Rift upside down.
Aside from that you should consider wall mounts like this : https://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Adjustable-Mounting-Installation-Surveillance/dp/B001D49TU4/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1496041851&sr=8-5&keywords=camera+wall+mount

Very easy to set up.

not so much. Been using one of these Wyze Cam Pan Protective Case. I do have it outside but under a roof, so it isn't directly out where water can hit the top of it. There's quite a bit of rain around me and I think this thing has been doing well. Do note (if you care to wait) that according to the Wyze CEO (in a recent email) that they are planning on an outdoor model soon.

This is pretty much what I did:

1. Wyze Cam mounted to soffit using this mount with USB power cord run into attic vent
   
2. USB plugged into to ethernet adapter (not this exact one but same idea)
   
3. Ethernet cord run accross attic and down wall into basement
   
4. Ethernet adapted back to USB
   
5. Adapter plugged into a 5000mAh cell phone powerbank for battery backup
   
6. Powerbank plugged into wall using included Wyze Cam power brick.
   
   I'm using a 32gb class 10 micro sd (can't remember the brand) and so far everything has held up great in a Canadian winter. We've had all kinds of different weather from rain to ice to snow (and lots of it)! Temps ranging from 15 celsius to -25 celsius.
   
   
   

1. Yes .. these and I love them https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G732B9J/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
   
   
2. Nope! And this past summer I've been through 100°F days, full sun, 60MPH winds, sideways 3" rain storms ... and now this winter -20°F nights, snow, ice, rain .... rain that then flash freezes.
   
   
3. Each exterior camera is mounted to window trim. The included USB cables running through the window to an outlet nearby. The flat cable makes this practical because it doesn't interfere with the window weather stripping.
   
   
4. a) Mounted to first story window exterior trim, covered front porch b) mounted to second story window exterior trim looking down at driveway, enclosure fully exposed to elements c) mounted to second story window exterior trim looking down at pool, enclosure fully exposed to elements d) mounted to wall in garage
   
   
5. Patriot 32GB SD in each for all-time recording, sending clips to the cloud. Waiting to hear about RTSP to make a decision on the upcoming storage device. (really, really hoping for RTSP)

Retractable with great height, even with this low entertainment block. 😼🎶
Should work with either generation PS4 camera; just remove its stand.

I made one of the mount holes large enough (with a small drill bit.. ideally you'd have the proper bit size 🥴) to fit my TV's bolt. If yours is smaller screen size it may have smaller bolts.

It's an Amazon seller, I ordered 3 of them and only received 2 of them so I can't say I recommend buying from that seller, but I do recommend the product. They are nice and strong, which is unfortunate that I didn't get all 3.

I placed an order for this one for my 3rd sensor:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R96X9DS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Which is almost the same, but doesn't have the 3M adhesive. I suppose I could buy my own adhesive, or I can use 3 thumb tacks as I've seen people do with these.

I don't have experience with that one, but I do have experience with a different type that I'm very happy with and would highly recommend.

It's sturdy and still cheap, the swivel locks in place and the sensor screws right into it. It's very solid.
I mounted mine right to the ceiling in the corners of my room, and used cable trays to hide the wires.

I just finished playing 15 levels of Brookhaven Experiment (amazing game), 3 sensors is all you need. I have two in the front corners on tri-pods roughly 5 feet from the ground and 8 feet apart angled toward the center of the play space and one rear center mounted 6" down from a 8' celing with this mount approximately 13 feet from the front. I know this isn't the recommended setup, I plan to try a few setups and decide what I like best. I had a 4th sensor on order but I decided to cancel it since 3 sensors works so well. My play space is roughly 9' x 9' right now, the only time I notice any goofiness is when I'm facing one of the rear corners and slowly turning, the handoff from one sensor to the next makes my pistol move in or out about 3-4 inches. It's not noticeable when I'm playing the game, just when I'm slowly rotating to test tracking.

1.) Buy some:

• cheap wall/ceiling mounts - https://www.amazon.co.uk/sourcingmap-Metal-Bracket-Security-Camera/dp/B00UVCKZZ2/ref=pd_sim_107_3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=YWPFSDBSZ19JTXY8JFYZ

  2.) My Rift lays on the table. I cover it with a towel (with a moomin on it xD)

Well, I live in Phoenix so I don't really deal with rain that much. These ones were installed under an overhang, so they are not getting wet.

I recently purchased this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07G732B9J/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'm moving shortly, and some of the locations will be more in the open. This should help I think.

My philosophy with these guys is... I'll risk it. It dies, It was only $25 :)


The live tracking is customizable too. Notice in the first video there is a black patch on the ground on the left? A cat likes to come by in the early morning sometimes and walk along that wall. I modified the tracking target so it doesnt alert me for movement there, only closer to the door.

I bought a pair of these off Amazon. They arrived yesterday and they seem like they are going to work perfectly for mounting up on the wall for my cameras. Comes in a 2-pack.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D49TU4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Just finished similar project. At first I tried placing a small magnet on the chain with sensor physically mounted on the opener. Bad idea - the magnet kept falling.

Ended up with this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00V57QGRI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1.

A bit expensive but very reliable and looks great. It also solved the open / close issues as the sensor is "on" when the door is 2" or less from the floor - really closed.

These are the mounts we used, and a lot cheaper than the ones linked on the wiki: OdiySurveil (TM) Metal CCD Security Housing Mount Bracket for CCTV Camera


We also bought this 3.0 USB Anker port as I was under the impression we would need it and it was recommended on a thread. We actually ended up not needing it, but we still have it available in case we need to free up usb slots. I would double check on other threads that it does indeed work before just taking my word for it, as I haven't tested it yet personally

Man, you have no idea how well it gets rid of that line of sight issue. I can lay prone and shoot! People were getting mad at me in multiplayer for it, lol.

It's super easy and will only cost you $40~ - here's what I used with mine:

• Mounts (2 pack)
  
• Cable Hooks
  
• 10 Foot USB 3.0 Extension
  
  The sensor cords are only 8 feet, so chances are you'll need to extend both. Use USB 3.0 for the first 2 sensors, and USB 2.0 if you get a 3rd.

You could indeed! However, the gripping pressure of those is far less and they won't open up as wide as the ones I mentioned. Although the steps I listed sound complex, actual assembly takes literally about 2 minutes for both clamps.

> Or if you're comfortable with putting screws in your wall you could save ~$30 by using a camera wall mount: https://www.amazon.com/FastSnail-Security-Adjustable-Interface-Standard/dp/B01M1CDI8G/

Correct! however, the mini ball heads present in those mounts are very poor quality and will wear out over time. I have had those Giottos mini ball heads for half a decade and they're still as flexible and grippy as when I bought them.

I mentioned this earlier, but you can definitely get cheaper parts than the ones I listed. However, they will also definitely be inferior.

I'm not him, but I used these and these. Looks great and tons of adjustability. I trimmed the command hook/loop strips so only the pull tabs stick out the bottom, (nothing out the top...since the strips are rectangles and the mounting base is circular...).

Do you have a protective case similar to the one in the link below on it? I had the white one and it looked almost exactly like this at night. If not, possibly just a very near by source of reflection? This looks like IR back scatter and based on the case I used, they are pretty sensitive to it. I first painted the case flat black, which resolved the IR issue for me short term. I eventually replaced the case with black ones that do not have the flap on the sides, as that seems to be where the reflections was mostly coming from. If you do not have a case on it, look for anything that is close to either side of the camera that might be reflecting the IR light. If not, I suspect one of the IR LEDs is misaligned. Maybe a defective unit?

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GCX831T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Edit: to fix spelling and to say that I do NOT recommend the linked case, especially not the white one if you plan to use IR for night recording. Spray paint all flaked off in a couple of days.

Okay. So wall mounted sensors are definitely the way to go. I got these:
Uxcell 1/4" Black CCTV Security Camera Metal Wall Mount Bracket https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00UVCKZZ2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_VYT6El8hJxCub

But the wires right? Well for those I got these:
Wiremold C110 1-channel CordMate Kit, White https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00004W3ZP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_CCv9zLkKoD43V

Then I have 10ft USB 3.0 extension cables on two sensors and a 16ft active USB 2.0 cable on my third sensor.

I ran the cables along the baseboard with the cord mate runners. They are white which matches my baseboards and then I run the cord mates with the sensor cables inside up the walls in the corners.

Shit works. Tracking is flawless. It's barely noticeable and I never have to mess with them now that they are setup.

When it comes to vr don't be surprised if you need to rearrange the layout of your furniture in the computer room. Think long and hard and then commit.

It helps if you draw this shit out first and think about how to lay out it before doing anything. This project will take a day but once your done your done.

What i do is use these

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000IDCDZY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

with some of this

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005SRECEU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Works flawlessly and its nice to have varying lengths of mounts.

The tape also wont rip off paint and stucco like command strips will.

For $8 you can mount them w/ 3 screws each. You will also save the rest of us from having heart palpitations.

I don't know about mounting the XB1 itself, but I mounted my Kinect to the wall using a security camera mount like this

I install a lot of these for companies and we always run POE. Run a Cat6 cable to each location and buy a small (4 or 5 port)POE switch and Ethernet to USB adapter on Amazon. This will likely be cheaper and less invasive than having an Electrician run new outlets.

POE switch>USB Adapter>Nestcam.

Also they make outdoor covers for the nestcams so they are secure and safe from weather

https://www.amazon.com/Dropcases-Dropcam-Outdoor-Enclosure-2-1-Inches/dp/B00Q4OSXA0/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1479837211&sr=8-12&keywords=nest+cam+cover

I picked up some Arlo wall mounts for my sensors which work great, but I'm considering returning them. They're basically overkill for my uses. Considering getting these instead. They're a good bit cheaper and look to do the same job.

I'm also using the velcro Command strips. Even if the wall mounts have a concave base, you can set the strips at an angle covering the screw holes and still get a firm hold on the wall.

These are super low profile: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R96X9DS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The sensors can be unscrewed from the bases, then you can use standard CCTV mounts if that's more convenient for you.
I could not get mine unscrewed though, so ymmv.
Other users have used mounts like these.
I personally built an overhead mount from k'nex that is self supporting and sits on shelves/doorframe, so I didn't have to drill into the wall/ceiling, but something like that can get very time consuming and bulky depending on how big your room is.

haha... I bought these 2 for $15. Mounted them last night, they work PERFECTLY.

So it's tough for your space since it's pretty small. Given the furniture you have that could interfere I would probably place the one camera centered on the wall above your bed up near the ceiling and angled towards the center of your play area, and the other centered above your window near the ceiling.

Generally having them in opposite corners (this is how mine are) would be better, but your cabinets would get in the way. You might have some issues since you will be fairly close to the camera, but I think you can get away with it.

My cameras are mounted using 3m command strips and small camera mounts. I chose this route since I cannot drill into my apartment walls without losing my deposit. I just stuck the strips to the back of the mounts and to the walls. If you choose this route make sure you give the adhesive some time to set before you actually put the camera up (on both the camera mount and the wall).

These are what I used:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LOQMCDM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you'd like to avoid adhesive and prefer screw-mount for any reason, I used these with great results, $8.89. These also allow fully vertical placement, which it doesn't look like the OP link's do.

Amazon. It was fairly inexpensive and they seem to be working out great. I have two cameras; both using these covers and mounts.

connection to the pi: Just get a cable for your A/V output (in my case a Mini USB Cable

Then install entangle on the pi to test it. (better usability) or just read the documentation of gphoto2 to check. You might also wanna look up if your cam is supported by it.

cheers.

I am using a mimo lite like this: http://www.fortrezz.com/shop/mimo-lite

I have it paired with a wired contact sensor similar to:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GUSNQW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1


It has been rock solid so far. Prior to this I had a MyQ and had several cases of phantom notifications that the door had opened or closed when it didn't. I also had a couple cases where it opened randomly. It became too unreliable to know what was real and what was fake.

I like the idea of the wired sensor because I don't have to worry about batteries or anything, and I also like that it is actually wired to the opener itself. It has proven, at least in my experience, to be way more reliable than the MyQ. It also integrates with all my other devices in smartthings.

If you have a 3D print shot near you, these are pretty cool
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1632488

That is correct, I had bought these to mount them upside down on my ceiling, and have one of them on a 2 meter USB 3.0 active extension cable. I've played through several different experiences, and no jumps anymore so far.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D49TU4/

I used the below graphic as the basis for my new setup (making sure not to go past the listed measured distances.
http://cdn.uploadvr.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/oculus-3-sensor.jpg

Just to provide another cheap option, I used these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009AOWF50

Works perfectly.

Yessss 100%! I mounted my 2 sensors to the ceiling, and now I'm able to track all the way down to the floor with no issues. Love it. Will definitely install the 3rd sensor the same way.

For anyone wondering what mount I used (idk, I lurk alot and this would help me lol):

https://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Adjustable-Mounting-Installation-Surveillance/dp/B001D49TU4/ref=pd_sim_421_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B001D49TU4&pd_rd_r=PRWR7G0B6X8WPC0RDBTE&pd_rd_w=9Vk3H&pd_rd_wg=dViLD&psc=1&refRID=PRWR7G0B6X8WPC0RDBTE

Thank you for the suggestion. I went ahead and placed a mount above my computer, but I guess since it's so close and high the tracking is a little wonky. I can mount the sensor back onto it's original mount when i want to do a sit down session. These are the mounts I'm using

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D49TU4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Totally doable. But first, have you thought about the logistics of an EXTERNAL camera (because if you need weather resistantce, presumably it's outdoors)? How are you running power to it? How are you connecting it to a network?

That said, you basically have 2 options:

1. You can buy a standalone device like a Nest Cam and an enclosure, and pay a monthly fee for video recording.
   
   
2. You can buy a cheaper outdoor IP camera, connect it to an "always on" PC or server and use software like ispyconnect to upload video to Google Drive.
   
   1 is probably more expensive in the long run, 2 is much more complex to set up, and requires an "always on" server.

I use this. u/EposVox uses it as well with his Panasonic G7 and for good reason; this thing can hold a pretty hefty load indefinitely as long as it's solidly mounted to something (in my case, I have it screwed onto the underside of a shelf above and behind my monitor).

I used these sensors for my garage last year and have been really happy with them. Running then back to a raspberry pi running some custom Python software I've written.

Yep! I used the following:

Camera mounts are here.

it comes with enough parts to make two medium sized mounts but until I get touch I combined the pieces to make one longer mount. Quality seems good and it mounts very sturdy to the wall.

Do you mind sharing the link for the mounts?

I have had no issues at all, this setup working very well for me.

I bought these for exterior mounting:

https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07G732B9J/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_DF7XDbPFVMJN0

For inside I'd probably experiment with the 3m sticky disc and metal disc that sticks to it, that the magnetic camera then sticks to... Literally just stick it to the wall where you want to monitor

Btw, wyze plugs can be used to set timers on your heat and uvb for daytime, then when they turn those off turn on your night lamp or heating pad. I use a dual plug from another company as I've had it long before wyze made theirs.

Could even use the wyze sensors on the doors or cage tops so you're notified when they're opened..

I'd recommend wall or ceiling mounting them.

Use these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001D49TU4/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Affordable and can be held in place with thumbtacks, so no drilling worries. Just shorten them to their shortest length and they'll work great

https://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Adjustable-Mounting-Installation-Surveillance/dp/B001D49TU4

These are the ones I got, broke them down to make them as small/short as possible. Thanks for the compliment btw!

1. Yes using an enclosure. See my set up here. Link go Amazon mounts I ordered. They are not water proof but help keep water off. I mounted under eaves to help.
   
   
2. No issue with elements. Has been -32F air temp and -55 WC and no issues.
   
   
3. Powering by using a light socket to plug adapter (last photo in link above).
   
   
4. Attaches under eaves. I have 2 cameras mounted outside one at each door.
   
   
5. Using Samsung Evo 32 GB SD card. 32 GB IS max it can take I believe.

That is a good idea. I had to kinda of wing it based on amazon purchase histories of other users (and their reviews)

Here is what I used if anyone is curious

https://www.amazon.com/OdiySurveil-Security-Housing-Bracket-Camera/dp/B00R96X9DS/

It came with 3 mollys and 3 screws for each one. Oculus sensor cameras are so light weight I did not bother using the mollys. I just used screws only (more than enough grip in drywall for our light weight cams)

I use these camera mounts, which are $6.79 (with free Prime shipping) and give you basically 360 degrees of motion for tweaking the angle.

Anything that supports a 1/4"-20 thread type. I used these and the extension cable that came with my LeapMotion HMD mount to run the 2 opposing cameras. Works great. There is some random occlusion but I rarely notice it in game, and its only if I'm close to the walls.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R96X9DS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I use wall camera mounts

like these

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01N4IOQP6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_dp_T2_TrDGzbFBAJMJD

for my rift sensors you just have to unscrew the stand

edit: it handles turning 360 just fine, the proble there is the cord (both rift and vive)

https://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Security-Adjustable-Universal-Mounting/dp/B000IDCDZY/ref=pd_cp_23_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B000IDCDZY&pd_rd_r=4Y85RGZ7BJW8N9YKBHH8&pd_rd_w=BhBTj&pd_rd_wg=KOKY6&psc=1&refRID=4Y85RGZ7BJW8N9YKBHH8

I went with these. The combined weight with the Rift sensors is still light enough to be very firmly secured with simple thumbtacks!

If the Kinect bottom does indeed have 1/4 20 thread...I am spraying something like this off white to match my wall trim on my wainscoting just under the wall mounted TV. Just Amazon search Camera mounts and possible put it right above the TV on the wall, may get you an extra 12 inches space back.

http://www.amazon.com/VideoSecu-Security-Adjustable-Universal-Mounting/dp/B000IDCDZY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1382819536&sr=8-1&keywords=1%2F4+20+Camera+Mount

I'm in a dorm room so we have plenty of command hooks and velcro strips from this company. They work really well so far and I have some velcro strips left over so what I was planning to do was order these and attach them with the strips. Should work fine.

Thanks for replying. That’s exactly what I was thinking. Here’s the mount I was considering.

Arlo Camera Mount

It would keep the orbi upright. They definitely look like camera mount screws but I didn’t know if they were standard sizes.

It mounts like this. If you have no top bezel it will cut off your a very small portion. (it is the closer one)

It does have a screw hole for a tripod/mount though so I guess you could use something like this, 3M strips could probably hold it if you can't screw into a wall or anything. here is a customer image from amazon of someone doing something similar

There are some good for VR reviews for these ones: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R96X9DS

I built a similar controller using the [GarHAge project](https://github.com/marthoc/GarHAge). Like yours, my garage is a simple 'push button to do something' type. I used [these overhead door sensors from Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00V57QGRI) to detect whether the door is open or closed.

I have 2 automations concerning the garage doors: the recommended [check status on start up](https://github.com/marthoc/GarHAge#hass-automation-workaround) script, and then an automation that send an alert to our phones if the garage door has been open for more than 5 minutes. It's not a "smart" automation, so it will go off if I'm out working in the garage with the door open, but it lets us catch when the door bounces back open after the cat sneaks out.

If you don't mind hanging it on your wall you can get something like [this] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00R96X9DS?psc=1&ref=yo_pop_mb_pd_title), or use one of the wall mounts that came with your base stations. You could also use a tripod or something.

It's a standard mount, so you can get something like this:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R96X9DS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It looks like one of those mounts is over $6, or you can get 2 of these metal mounts for just over $7.

I use these mounts with command strips for my sensors. Two strips per mount and they seem very stable

Pretty simple really. Just uses a simple tripod mount system. You could even but to cheap tripods from wallmart.

Snake

Simple

Omall (TM) Metal CCD Security Housing Mount Bracket for CCTV Camera https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00R96X9DS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_Olqsyb7666GDV

Just sold out. But very small and cheap wall mounts.

You could just use a security camera mount. Got mine for $7 on amazon

You could absolutely get away with mounting it on a shelf. I just didn't like that option because the sides of my cabinet blocked some of the field of vision. I used something similar to this rigging up a rare earth magnet and using the old metal plate from the V2. What I used was not the exact model that I linked, so I'm not recommending that one by any means. I took to ebay and found something like that from China for cheap. I think it cost me about $10 for the magnet and mount, so it wasn't bad. Just want to give you an idea of some of the options that you could come up with if the other mounting options don't work well for you.

sure. I bought two of these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00R96X9DS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and just used drywall anchors I had to mount then on the wall my computer is on.

I have two pan and scan cameras outside.

1. I am using these enclosures: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GCX831T/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
   
2. I have not lost one to the elements and we've experienced -30F wind chills, ice, and snow.
   
3. Via a long USB that is carefully hidden behind the gutters and landscaping.
   
4. One is mounted under the roof soffit above the garage and the other under the roof of my back deck.
   
5. I have 32GB microSD cards in the cameras.

As /u/deathmonkeyz said, there's a 1/4" tripod mount on the bottom. You can use something like this to mount it to a wall. (That's just the first match I found for such a thing. There's a lot of different styles and prices. Chances are with the low weight of the Oculus sensor, you could get away with something cheaper.)

You'll need the following:

• Weatherproof Solar Charger with battery, $40: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SZD62NX
  
• Wyze Cam Pan with Wyze 32GB MicroSD, $51: https://www.amazon.com/Wyze-1080p-Indoor-Camera-Vision/dp/B07F6D5N7P
  
• Wyze Cam Pan Weatherproof Protective Case, $14: https://www.amazon.com/Protective-Bracket-Adjustable-Anti-Sun-Protection/dp/B07GCX831T
  
• Portable GSM Wifi Router, $40: https://www.amazon.com/Hotspot-WD670-Unlocked-Cricket-Caribbean/dp/B07JPGDV2L
  
• SIM chip with data.
  
  You can tell the Wyze Cam to detect any human movement and send an alert to your phone with a 14-second video clip.
  
  Remotely, from your phone, you can watch a constant video and sound feed and you can review any video stored on the 32GB MicroSD. You can also set it to time-lapse mode, etc.

I just got these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HMNJIO6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Mounted 2 on the ceiling in the front (with duct tape until I can experiment with the setup, holding fine with my one sensor).

In the rear I have this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LLM3Z0S/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Which is what I was using previously with my one sensor.

Drop ceiling mounts are really easy. Use these mounts:

https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07BPQS2XG/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_o7zyCb512PHSN

​

But don't use the included hardware, use a method as detailed here:

https://www.security-camera-warehouse.com/installation-portal/bullet-camera-ceiling.php

Yep. one more sensor is a must have. Also get three of these wall mounts

I tried going with 8 foot tripods for a while but you'll want as much floor space to walk around in as possible

List of components:

• Adjustable/reversible Neoprene Cable Sleeve
  
  
• Wiremold Cordmate Kit
  
  
• Ceiling Mounts for a Camera
  
  
• Various USB Extenders (advice: when in doubt get the long ones. I had to double up on extenders because I thought I knew better than to take measurements)
  
  

okay, here's the one you have to screw in..

1. https://www.amazon.com/Camera-Bracket-Weather-Security-Outdoor/dp/B07G732B9J
   
2. Nope
   
3. Powered directly by an outlet through walls like in this guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZFBecgvtQU - same mount I listed too
   
4. All placed under roof eaves, though I did seal them with silicone & put a mesh screen on the bottom hole (read reviews on product page for more info)
   
5. Samsung 32GB EVO MicroSD Card & it's set to continuously record & events to cloud. Been using them for 4-5 months & no issues. (Well, if I record from the timeline the audio is usually out of sync, but that's actually a firmware issue)

Those are called ‘tilt sensors ’

Another option is to use a simple contact but you’ll need a GPIO and that till drive up your costs
